The website is a great way to educate yourself as a buyer or seller. Additionally, you can save
searches and are automatically notified when a new home comes on the market. Unlike many
other websites, we provide up-to-date information with listings updated multiple times per day.
I believe in service and professional advice both on the website and in person. It is so very
important to be as educated as possible when it comes to putting in your offer or listing your
home in today's changing market. You need any and all competitive advantages you can get.
As a native of the East Bay, I take pride in the East Bay and love sharing my local knowledge
with people new to the area. My approach to real estate is to build strong, lasting relationships. I
do this by responding to my client's needs and following through with my promises. This enables
my clients to put their trust in me. The result: They come back to work with me time and time
again. I want all of my clients to achieve their real estate goals and I believe that the expertise,
professionalism and energy I offer will make every transaction a rewarding experience. Outside of
real estate, I enjoy skiing, biking, hiking, backpacking, culinary arts and the many amenities that
San Francisco, the East Bay and Lake Tahoe have to offer. Send me an email or give me a
call...I look forward to meeting you!

"We have never felt so at ease with working with an agent, as we do with Linnette. From the
beginning, she has been the epitome of professionalism. Linnette is a great listener and knows
exactly what we're looking for in a home. We have complete trust in her ability to build a
relationship with the listing agent, negotiate a strong offer, and help us put our best foot forward.
On top of that, she is one of the nicest people we know! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her
to friends and family, which we've done on many occasions." - Amy (Gary & Cammy)
"We are first time home buyers and Linnette made the process very smooth for us. She
educated us about all pros and cons which helped us making the right decision. She never
pushed us for anything. She clearly understood our needs and worked very well with those
parameters. We started with an agent but now we have a very good friend. Even my kids
love her. My advice to first time home buyers - Ask for Linnette Edwards." - Sanjay

Linnette Edwards is awesome. Where can we start? She is by far
the most knowledgeable, professional, and courteous realtor we've had the pleasure to work
with. (Before deciding to buy through her, we werecourting several other realtors from nearby
competitors) We posted great things about her on agentsonline.net. Every step of the way, she
reminded us of what needed to be done, and made the process as painless and easy as
possible. She was always available to meet or talk and answered questions quickly and
thoroughly. After our offer was accepted, we looked on-line at some other houses and went
through buyers remorse. When we fired questions at Linnette, she
responded with impressive aplomb and addressed each and every concern
that we had. In addition, she fought hard to get us a good price and
bargained for us to get many things fixed or taken care of by the seller. She's hardworking,
accessible, and a joy to work with. We'd buy through her again. - Frank, Catherine, Byron, and
Cory Chang
"Linnette made us feel extremely comfortable during what would normally be an extremely
anxious time of buying a first home. Her knowledge in the real estate arena was extensive and
she informed us of all the necessary "watch-outs" and knew all the right questions to ask
throughout our entire home-buying process. Linnette truly cares about us as people, not simply
clients, and she was by our side during the entire home-purchasing process. You're the best,
Linnette!!! Thank you for making our dream of wanting to buy our first home a reality! We would
recommend you to anyone, and we look forward to working with you again in the future!" - Brad
and Shonda
"Linnette didn't just put my house on the market, she marketed the house. She knew exactly how
to present the house, told me how the get it ready for sale, advertised to build excitement, and
priced it to get the most value for the home. My house sold in just over a week, with multiple
offers well over any of my expectations. I would recommend her to anyone." - Greg and Carley
"As first time home buyers we were overwhelmed with the process of purchasing a house.
Linnette made us feel really comfortable and answered all our questions patiently and
thoroughly. She was supportive of our choices and was very effective in setting up home
viewings for us. She worked with us to get us the house we wanted." - Mike and Cody
"Very good services. Will recommend her to our friends." - Scott and Polly Jaw
"Linnette was tenacious on my behalf and it was very much appreciated. She understood that I
had a short timeline and limited personal time to devote to the search. Linnette went above and
beyond the call of duty. I needed results and that's what she delivered!" - Brian
"Linnette was recommended to me by a good friend who had just bought her first home through
Linnette. I'd had a so-so experience with another agent, and my friend raved about how great
Linnette was. I can't tell you how TERRIFIC Linnette has been to work with. I am a first-time
home buyer, and definitely needed some hand holding. For starters, Linnette is such a pleasant
person and has a great attitude. She's a good mix of optimistic and realistic, which is a good
combo when looking for a home. She caught on immediately as to what I was looking for, and
always had a good batch of places to go see. She was extremely thorough too. She was always
bringing along or e-mailing me info on the various properties, and she educated me on the
housing market and what to look for (and look out for). One thing she did that other agents
hadn't done that was very helpful was that she took me on driving tours of the neighborhoods I
wanted to look in, and some that I didn't even know existed. Linnette was also never pushy
about anything. I never felt pressured like I have with other agents. Throughout the entire
process, right through to the close of escrow (and still now), she was always available if I had
questions, concerns, etc. No time was ever a bad time to call, and she was always quick to
respond. I have already given Linnette's card out to a few of my friends who are getting ready to
start looking to buy. How much did Linnette pay me for this testimonial you ask? Not a red cent.
It's all true. - John Connelly
"I can truthfully say I have never worked with a more determined, knowledgeable and efficient
real estate agent. Linnette was extremely responsive to my needs and did everything to ensure
the transaction went smoothly. I do not hesitate to recommend her highly, as I know any future
clients will receive the same degree of excellent service that I have." Sharon
"...great customer service is difficult to define in one sentence. But Linnette's expertise,
persistence and a true dedication (to) her clients are just some of the things that make Linnette
the best real estate professional I ever had a chance to work with." - Yevgeniy
"(Linnette) was the center of our positive experience." - Johnsons
"Next to the house itself, Linnette was the real find. Honest, sincere, and forthcoming, Linnette
stayed on top of our case and helped us get everything done. We talked to Linnette almost
everyday, and she did everything she could to get us what we needed. Linnette knows the area
and knows the business--keys to a positive house-buying experience. No friend of ours will buy
or sell a house without being referred to Linnette first!" Brett and Kelly
"Buying a house is one of the most stressful experiences I have encountered. Through it all,
Linnette is a breath of fresh air. Linnette demonstrated that she is knowledgeable, trustworthy
and patient. When things looked bleak and unattainable, Linnette stayed positive and
enthusiastic. She kept me from giving up on my search. Linnette showed me that she cared
about what I was trying to achieve and she wanted to help me get there. Linnette made the
experience exciting and as pleasurable as could be given the situation. Providing resources for
everything I needed, she helped me learn about schools and the demographics of the area I
was looking in. She also provided references for financing and the home inspection. I did not
have to worry anything because Linnette walking me through the entire escrow process. I now
look forward to moving into my new home! She is the BEST. I highly recommend her to anyone
who is looking for an agent you can depend on." - Mary
"Being frustrated with our earlier Real Estate experience, we turned to Linnette. After our initial
meeting, she was able to show us properties that had the qualities we were looking for. As first
time home buyers, she was quick to respond to our many questions and full of helpful facts and
personalized "comps". We were in a very competitive bidding situation, and Linnette was full of
wonderful suggestions and creative ideas, which ultimately got us the house, even though we
weren't the highest bid. As we moved through escrow, she was constantly calling us with
updates and information that helped us feel comfortable with the process and confident in our
decision. In summary, we would gladly recommend Linnette to anyone looking for an extremely
competent, intelligent, motivated and pro-active real estate agent!" - Rebecca and Victor
"...we just wanted to say "Thank You so much" to our Agent Linnette...our experience with
Linnette was exceptional... because of her knowledge and expertise, in not only the real estate
market, but the financing as well...Linnette was always available and patient with us during the
entire process. We would highly recommend her to anyone who wants honest, competent
advice when buying or selling a home. Linnette will be my first choice as an agent if I am ever in
the market to sell and buy again. Thank you for your hard work. It is always a pleasure to work
with a professional agent of your caliber. Thanks again." Samuel and Rebecca
"Linnette worked diligently with me over a long time period to find exactly what I wanted and
needed, and then made the escrow process go smoothly despite some unique challenges." -
Steven Buckley
"Linnette was a fantastic agent. She was very professional and hard-working. She worked well
with the listing agent and made the purchasing process as smooth as possible. She answered
my seemingly endless stream of questions thoroughly and was really a pleasure to work with." -
Buyer, Oakland, CA
"Linnette represented me in both the purchase of my new home and the sale of my condo. She
was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. Linnette was always available to answer my
questions and kept in contact with me during the entire process. I always felt up to date on the
status of the sale and purchase. I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a
professional, easy-going and enthusiastic agent." - Leslie
"Linnette made my first home-buying experience a joy. She was always available, able to
answer all my questions, and inspired confidence throughout the process. I would work with her
again in a heartbeat." - Karen Meyer
"Linnette was excellent. In a seller's market it was important to feel that we were well
represented and that we felt confident with our quick decision to make an offer only 4 days after
meeting her for the first time." - Warren Geddes
"We went 'through' a few agents before we found Linnette. I immediately felt comfortable just
talking to her on the phone. The other agents we worked with had a strong attitude or ego that
stood out. The first time I went out looking for houses with Linnette I felt I can trust her and that
she will find for us what we're looking for. She did just that. The house apparently got 12-15
offers and she was the one getting it. She is not only a very professional agent but also has a
kind and easy-going personality. I personally felt comforted by interacting with her. With her
extraordinary self-confidence she chased my fears and doubts away. My husband and I would
and will strongly recommend Linnette to anyone we encounter who is looking to buy a house." -
Jindati Doelter
"Linnette was fantastic. She helped us though every stage of the process, was wonderfully
knowledgeable, and it seemed, always available." - Marisha chilcott
